A love story about Dust Bowl heroes who didnt leave for CaliforniaHarlan Singer, a harmonicaplaying troubadour, shows up in the Thompson familys yard one morning. He steals their hearts with his music, and their daughter with his charm. Soon he and his fourteenyearold bride, Sharon, are on the road, two more hobos of the Great Depression, hitchhiking and hopping freights across the Great Plains in search of an old man and the settlement of Harlans longstanding debt.Finding shelter in hobo jungles and Hoovervilles, the newlyweds careen across the 1930s landscape in a giant figure eight with Oklahoma in the middle. Sharons growing doubts about her husbands quest set in motion events that turn Harlan Singer into a hero while blinding her to the dark secret of his journey. A love story infused with history and folk tradition, Harpsong shows what happened to the friends and neighbors Steinbecks Joads left behind.In this moving, redemptive tale inspired by Oklahoma folk heroes, Rilla Askew continues her exploration of the American story. Harpsong is a novel of love and loss, of adventure and renewal, and of a wayfaring orphans search for homeall set to the sounds of Harlans harmonica. It shows us the strength and resilience of a people who, in the face of unending despair, maintain their faith in the land.
